Heart Of The Matter
Love
Love,
And magic,
We desire,
Eternal flame,
Burning fire,
One quick glance,
A second look,
Fingers touching,
Now electric,
Realising,
You're half whole,
Separation,
We go on,
Silence speaks,
A thousand words,
Go to work now,
Have some lunch,
Do some shopping,
Stock the cupboards,
Put the feet up,
See what's left,
A photograph,
In black & white,
Now it's tarnished,
Just like me,
Is this really,
Being free,
What of closure,
Will it open,
One new door,
Turn the handle,
Turn a screw,
Think another,
Thought of you,
Are you out there,
Is that you,
Catch my breath now,
Start anew,
Table turning,
Now half empty,
Broken hearted,
Empty headed,
Knowing now,
Love is nothing,
Just a million miles,
From you.
And magic,
We desire,
Eternal flame,
Burning fire,
One quick glance,
A second look,
Fingers touching,
Now electric,
Realising,
You're half whole,
Separation,
We go on,
Silence speaks,
A thousand words,
Go to work now,
Have some lunch,
Do some shopping,
Stock the cupboards,
Put the feet up,
See what's left,
A photograph,
In black & white,
Now it's tarnished,
Just like me,
Is this really,
Being free,
What of closure,
Will it open,
One new door,
Turn the handle,
Turn a screw,
Think another,
Thought of you,
Are you out there,
Is that you,
Catch my breath now,
Start anew,
Table turning,
Now half empty,
Broken hearted,
Empty headed,
Knowing now,
Love is nothing,
Just a million miles,
From you.
